A sturdy, resonant cajon with a red oak frontplate and a matte finish.

The Meinl Headliner® Series Cajons deliver the classic cajon sound at an affordable price and can be used in Flamenco or world music. They are also very useful during unplugged gigs for delivering the rhythmic foundation for a whole band when a full drum set can’t be used. This cajon features a rubber wood body and a red oak frontplate.

Just a plastic box with a cabinet skin plywood front. I own another Meinl cajon that I truly enjoy and I thought this one "wood" (pardon the pun) be similar. It was on sale with free shipping. I would have returned it, but the return shipping and extra charge for the "free shipping" made it not worth the effort. Spend the extra money and purchase an all wood model.

Did not include the padded seat as advertised...I use it as a seat at my piano and it seems a bit small...found it difficult to adjust the snare sound to one that is crisp. It does the job I need it to do for the moment, but am afraid it will be replaced by something else down the road.
